Survivor Scholarship Competition Dear TRIO Project Directors in Alabama: The Alabama Association of Educational Opportunity Program Personnel (AAEOPP) is pleased to announce the annual scholarship competition. TRIO participants are invited to compete for two Survivor Scholarship awards of $1,000.00. This is a new scholarship category specifically for applicants who have experienced difficulties due to circumstances beyond their control in the quest to both graduate from high school and then enter and succeed in college. These awards may be used to help defray postsecondary educational costs during the 2017-18 academic year. Only one application may be submitted per TRIO Program. The application deadline is January 20, 2017. Applications submitted electronically in a PDF format must be received by 5 pm. Mailed applications must be postmarked by January 20, 2017. Applicants will be judged and rated in the following areas:
Each application will be reviewed and rated by the Scholarship Committee. No applicant’s materials will be reviewed by a person from the same program or institution. In order for winners to receive their financial awards, sponsors must provide official verification of fall 2017 semester enrollment and proof of two weeks attendance in a postsecondary institution. Award checks, made payable to the student, will be initiated upon receipt of the requested documentation and forwarded to the designated mailing address. Completed application packets are to be returned to me at the address below. Late applications will be disqualified.
